Contaminated food is a very serious issue which may result into demise. As per WHO’s statistical report in 2014, over 2.5 million people died due to diarrheal diseases. Moreover, U.S is facing an alarming rate of increase in foodborne illness resulting into nearly 5 thousand deaths and more than 325 thousand hospitalizations every year. This has generated the need to implement quality and safety checks, where consumers have the authority to trace their ready to eat meals, processed products, bakery, preserved & canned products. In this regard the EU and FDA have given conformities with consumers’ rights to track food through all production and distribution stages, in turn driving the food safety testing industry. In addition, major food regulatory bodies and authorities such as Good Hygiene Practices (GHP), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP), and Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) are extending extensive support in ensuring food authenticity, thereby, propelling the food safety testing market growth.

The growth in food safety testing market is also poised to benefit from increasing consumption of meat, poultry, and dairy products.
